Single, did you disable powerplay in afterburner?
The problem with afterburner is it disables powerplay once you activate unofficial overclocking or overvolting. The best way around it is to:
1. Download Radeon Bios Editor from TPU and set your own voltage for 3D mode.
2. Use ATi Tray Tools to overclock and set profiles with clocks and voltages.
3. Use Afterburner for fan control and cool graphs.

Let me know if you need help.

Hey, where did you get a Shaman cooler for $50? Everywhere I've been checking has been $75+...

I picked up a couple of 6950's that I flashed to 6970's but want to stick on a Shaman cooler for each card. I'd be willing to spend another $100, but $150 is pushing it for my wallet considering I just bought a 2600K, Asrock Fatality, and 16GB of ram as well as the cards :)

But, if you want, I can run some of these benchies when I get him tonight.

The Shaman Cooler was off eBay, some guy was selling it cause it takes up 4 slots and Multi-GPU capability is limited.

Nice scores, what card(s) is that at what speed/config?

Thanks for the benches.

These are dual 6950s that I flashed to 6970s. I also bumped the core up to 880 but left the memory alone.

Might have to pick up a couple shamans as I have an asrock board. The problem is I don't have one of those extended crossfire connectors and would have to buy that as well I think.

You sure Crossifire is on? Your average seems a bit on the low side wouldn't you say?

Crossfire is on. I think the DOF thing just kills it though for ATI cards. I am nearly double your score all the way around without it enabled in metro 2033.
